Eggnog Coffeecake

Posted by thecaramelcookie / 2 comments » / Breads, Cake, Dessert

I know it’s way past Christmas time but I wanted to share this cake with you all–it’s soooo good! I made this coffeecake in early December for a party and
it turned out to be a favorite holiday dessert for my husband and I.

I got the recipe from the genius mind of Jessica of How Sweet It Is. I just love her dessert recipes!

I used Silk eggnog for the cake, and it came out very well. I’m normally not a huge fan of soy-based drinks but their eggnog is really good! The eggnog
flavor in the cake is not very strong at all, so you can please both the eggnog lovers and haters in your life. In fact, most people had no idea it even
had eggnog until I told them.

If you can still find eggnog around, make this cake! Don’t wait until next holiday seaon.
